No injuries occurred from the derailment, officials said.

The stop is currently being controlled by signage, a Suffolk City release said.

"It sounded like a tornado coming through," Suffolk resident Tommy Vaughan said of the accident Saturday morning. "It's the first time I've seen something like this - I'm glad it didn't come through the house."

Vaughan lives less than one block from where the cars derailed.

Officials have not yet determined the cause of the accident, Susan Terpay, director of public relations for Norfolk & Southern, said by phone Saturday morning.

Andrew Tucker, who lives about one block from where the accident occurred said he was surprised to see the cars totaled.

"It didn't even look real, it was like a cartoon, Tucker said. "The way they were bent up like that. Doesn't seem like steel would bend up like that."
